@terminatoruk4921 Жыл бұрын

Really impressive - definitely a technique that punches far above its 'effort weight' if that makes any sense. I'm dead keen on the traditional approach for contrast and cleanliness reasons and generally dislike other techniques involving a simple dry brush or speed-paint method, however, you just cannot argue with these results - definitely would consider this for a more organic / skin / cloth type of model.

Orks have _always_ made brilliant palettes for drybrushing; 20-odd years ago, my Ork flesh playbook was dark green basecoat, drybrush up with a lighter green and then an ink wash to tie it together and add to the shading!

To be perfectly honest, we did not have anything like contrast paints or speedpaints 2.0 or express paints readily available in 90s. Acrylics themselves were very limited in ranges and mediums and thickness =) Slap chop is not working as good with just thinned down acrylic paint.

@Brissebrajan Жыл бұрын

3 - 4 hours, i can spend more than that on a single model. But i 100% agree with you, when you have whole army/box/ or just a unit to paint. 3-4 hours / model can be hard to find motivation for, and even more so if you are new to painting, and you results don't really match up with the quality of the box art. The slapchop works great with contrast paints. i have not tried it myself, but for getting an army painted and battle ready, your results are great =)

I've gone through a season of "traditional" painting (layer/wash/highlight/etc) and am getting back into some slapchop, so this was fun to watch. Question: How do get the git onto the base securely? Do you put some glue over the flocking and then glue the ork on top of the glue or just glue directly onto the grass?

maybe you're taking too much paint off of the brush as silly as it sounds, you don't have to go as dry on the grey layer. It could also be the type of brush, try using a makeup brush as the bristles are very soft.
